About

The ABC/25 Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to giving A Better Community for District 25. It provides funds, raised via membership dues and fundraising activities, for educational enhancement in Arlington Heights School District 25. Our mission is “to foster innovation, creativity, and excellence for the children of District 25.”

Grants

Each fall, teachers and district staff submit grant applications to help fund a variety of creative and innovative programs outside of the district’s budget. These grants are then blindly voted on and awarded during the first school semester.

The ABC/25 Foundation also awards $2,500 to District 25 schools when 25% of the school’s families become members annually. This grant’s funds can be used at the school’s discretion.

Events

In addition to annual membership dues and donations, the ABC/25 Foundation funds grants benefiting AHSD25 schools through fundraising programs and activities.

The ABC/25 Foundation also provides a member-benefit STEAM event that is free for members to attend. The STEAM event for the 2024-2025 school year was The Magic of Science.

For the 2025-2026 school year, the ABC/25 Foundation will host an Anti-Bullying Campaign with Box Out Bullying that will be free for everybody in the district!

Our ABC/25 Fore Education golf fundraising event will be held on March 15, 2026.
